  • It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.

The article from MSN Money discusses the appeal of investing in The Kroger Co. (KR) for value investors. It highlights that Kroger, a major U.S. supermarket chain, has shown a significant stock price increase of 12% over the past three months, yet it still appears undervalued with a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) and an A for Value.

The piece also mentions Kroger's ongoing merger with Albertsons, which could potentially enhance its market position, although it notes that such deals come with regulatory scrutiny.
